Chapter 696

“Are you okay?” It was now Jonathan who grew anxious. When he saw Rosalie falling backward just now, he felt like

all the blood in his body was about to freeze.

Rosalie was also shaken, her face turning pale.

She knew she had been too anxious just now. If she had really fallen, it would have put her three unborn children in

danger.

“I-I’m fine,” Rosalie said, finally catching her breath.

Jonathan helped Rosalie regain her balance, his gaze turning cold as he looked at Callum. “Mr. White, please be

mindful. If anything happens to my wife, I will make sure the White family disappears from Jacaster.” Callum replied

expressionlessly, “Is that so? It seems that you have quite the reach – not only in Strico but also in Jacaster, Mr.

Youngblood. If you have the ability to make the White family disappear, Mr. Youngblood, then give it a try.”

The situation was tense.

Rosalie tugged at Jonathan and said, “Enough, the most important thing right now is Lillian’s matter.”

She then turned to look at Callum and asked, “Are you determined to see Lillian today, no matter what?”

Callum remained silent, but his silence spoke volumes.

“I know I can’t stop you, but my only request is…” Rosalie glanced at Madeline, who stood beside Callum. “Ms. Tall

can’t go to the hospital.”

“What if I insist on going?” Madeline raised her chin defiantly.

Jonathan sneered, “My wife said you can’t go, so you won’t set foot in that hospital.”

Madeline’s complexion changed. She hadn’t forgotten that the man in front of her had extraordinary influence in

Strico, which was not the Tall family’s territory.

Callum turned to Madeline and said, “Wait for me. I’ll go to the hospital and come back to you.”

Madeline smiled softly. She suddenly embraced Callum’s neck, kissed him on the lips, and said affectionately, “Sure,

I’ll wait for you. Just make sure you make things clear to your ex-girlfriend. Don’t drag it out, or it

will be embarrassing for me.”

“Okay, I understand,” Callum replied, his voice slightly hoarse.

Rosalie’s face darkened as she wondered, “Callum didn’t refuse Madeline’s kiss, which meant… Is Callum really

planning to be with Madeline? What about Lillian, then?”

Rosalie walked out without saying a word, with Jonathan closely

protecting her. As for Callum, he followed them.

When they reached the car outside, Rosalie confronted Callum. “I don’t care what you’re going to say to Lillian,

whether it’s to reconcile or break up, but I want to remind you of one thing. Lillian is someone you once loved.

Don’t push her to the brink. If something happens to her, I won’t let you off.”

Rosalie rarely threatened people like this, but for Lillian’s sake, she was willing to go all out.

She couldn’t stop Callum from seeing Lillian, but she wanted Lillian to live and receive proper treatment.

Now that things had come to this point, they couldn’t hide the truth from Lillian anymore.

She didn’t know how Callum’s meeting with Lillian would affect her, but she hoped that Callum would consider their

past relationship and wouldn’t hurt Lillian that much.

“You don’t need to tell me what to do. I’ll handle my matters with Lillian myself,” Callum said coldly.

The three got in the car and went to the hospital.

Lillian had been transferred to a regular ward. She had a VIP single room with a comfortable environment and an

extra bed for her companion. Usually, either Stephen or Abigail would stay overnight with her in the hospital.

At this moment, Lillian sat up quietly on her hospital bed. Her hospital gown had been carefully adjusted.

Her head was wrapped up in a bandage. Her once lovely and charming face now looked pale and exhausted after

being in the hospital for days and undergoing two major surgeries.

Lillian’s parents Stephen and Abigail sat quietly beside her, knowing that she was stubborn.

Even if they said they would sever ties with her, as they did in the past

when she chose to save Rosalie and gave up the opportunity for further education, it wouldn’t work.

Now that Lillian wanted to see Callum, she wouldn’t give up until it happened.

Just then, the door was pushed open. Rosalie and Jonathan walked in first, followed by Callum.

Lillian’s eyes were fixed on Callum in an instant.

Her gaze immediately locked onto Callum. The nervousness and anxiety that had been present within her moments

ago disappeared in an instant. He was standing in front of her safe and sound.

Taking a deep breath, Lillian said, “Dad, Mom, Rosalie, Mr. Youngblood, could you please step out for a moment? I

have something to discuss with Callum.”

Rosalie was worried that Callum might say something hurtful to her friend, and for a moment, she hesitated about

leaving the room.

In the end, it was Jonathan who said to Rosalie, “Let’s go out first. I believe Mr. White will handle this properly.”

“Rosalie, don’t worry,” Lillian added.

Rosalie and Jonathan left the ward. Stephen and Abigail followed suit hesitantly, leaving the ward.

Rosalie looked at Jonathan and said, “Will it really be okay? If Callum really said something heartless, then Lillian got

provoked…”

She couldn’t imagine it.

Stephen and Abigail quickly asked, “Is Callum with someone else as the news claimed? Did he come here to reveal

the truth and break up with Lillian?”

After all, Lillian was seriously injured now, and it was uncertain whether there would be any long-term

consequences. Callum was the heir of the White family, and his future seemed boundless.

Naturally, their thoughts tended to lean toward the idea that Callum might be rejecting Lillian.

“I’m not very sure either. Perhaps we’ll have answers once they’ve talked,” Rosalie said with a solemn expression

on her face.

Lillian’s parents Stephen and Abigail could only wait anxiously.

Jonathan held Rosalie’s hand and reassured her, “What you’re afraid of

probably won’t happen. Callum will handle this with discretion. At the very least, he shouldn’t want anything bad to

happen to Lillian. In fact, you could say he’s afraid of that.”

“How can you be sure?” Rosalie said.

“If he truly didn’t care about Lillian, he wouldn’t have shown that panicked expression when he heard me say that

Lillian was unconscious and might become a vegetable,” Jonathan replied.

As fellow men, they naturally understood that someone like Callum, with

a reserved and dark personality, would only lose his composure if he

cared deeply about someone.
